Geleen vertelt - Verhalen over een wereldstad

Welcome to Geleen! This city takes you on a journey and along the way reminisces about its unique origins, the stormy growth and the hard-working inhabitants.

In the past, it used to be thousands of miners who mined coal from the State Mine Maurits en masse. They lived in so-called colonies (miners' quarters) and after the service there was plenty to do in the city… and still do!

During this walk, Geleen tells you stories about a metropolis.
